In short, priceless. If this is a genuine Stradivari Violin, it will be worth well over $3,000,000 at auction, according to the research I've done due to having found one of these from my deceased grandparents, who themselves have had it in their family for over 160 years. The first thing you will need to do is to have it appraised and find out if it is indeed genuine. The problem is that almost all of the 600 or so instuments made by Antonio Stradivari are accounted for. That in combination with the fact that it is perfectly legal for any violinmaker to put a label like the one you mention inside his instruments ,as long as he doesn't try to sell the instrument as the genuine article,make it EXTREMELY unlikely that your violin is anything more than an instrument made "in the style of". That being said ,your viloin could still have substantial value.Many "copies" of Stradivari violins are themselves worth many thousands of dollars .The only way to tell for sure is to have a qualified luthier look at your instrument, again keeping in mind that the likelihood of it being a genuine Stradivari would something in the neighborhood of one in a Trillion.
Nicoló Amati was Antonio Stradivari's teacher
Gibson stopped making violins after World War II. When the war began in 1942, the company stopped making violins and help support in the war. After the war, they began to make guitars only. Very few volins were made during that time period; i have one myself. the bow is rare, but not very expensive

He has several. but the one he is always talking about is a stradivarius.
The company Stradivarius makes not only violins, but they also make all kinds of stringed instruments. They make almost every stringed instrument besides the guitar. They are a classic music company.
Stradivarius. He is the most famous violin maker of all times. you can buy one of his violins for a few million dollars. He uses some kind of famous method to make them. Barely any of his violins still exist. Now, for a few thousand dollars, people make models of his violins using his method. Still, the original copies are a lot more paresis.

very ________ Violins have been around for a long time, but violins are still being made that are brand new! Mid 1500's , but there are refinements being made, i.e. electrified violins , but those most prized are Stradivarius' , made by Antonio Stradivari from the mid 1600's to the early 1700's. The second most prized by most are Guarnerius', in fact some prefer him to Stradivari . It's a matter of personal choice for the world's finest violinists who have the talent and pocket to make that choice .
